Hi, just tried this but it didn't work. I have found out though that even 
though it sees my CardBus bridge as a bridge to 02-05 there is no line about 
entering these domains (if that is the correct term). On the otherhand, my 
graphics card has a PCI bridge to 01-01 and directly below that information 
is a line saying 

01: Entered via 00:01.0

Is this anything important or is it normal for it not to enter if it doesn't 
see anything?

Thanks.
